Changing Lanes

You wear your seat belt 1
That stops you changing lanes
Your keeping good health
That stops you changing that stops you changing
That stops you changing lanes
Your making good time
That stops you changing lanes
You take a straight line
That stops you changing that stops you changing
Your moving so fast cause your going somewhere
You’ve got a grey suit with neat cropped hair
Black leather shoes and a matching coat
A big black car and a bigger black boat
That stops you changing lanes 2
You wear your seat belt
That stops you changing lanes
Your keeping good health
That stops you changing that stops you changing
Your moving so fast cause your going somewhere
You’ve got a grey suit with neat cropped hair
Black leather shoes and a matching coat
A big black car and a bigger black boat
The mould is made and the die is cast
You know the first love will never last
Trade the old for something new
A trophy that will shine for you

It's Not Me Talking
02:42
|
|||
|
I hear the voices but there's no one there,
You speak to me in another language.
Computer says it's a binary code,
It's just a pity I can't understand it.
It's not me talking,
It's not me talking.
I see a ship from a golden sky,
I sent a message. Will they understand it?
Computer's ready but to overload,
This isn't happening the way I planned it.
It's not me talking,
It's not me talking,
It's not me talking,
It's not me talking.
(so send a messenger)
It's not me talking,
It's not me talking.
.
You got me talking, talking,
Talking, talking.
You got me talking, talking,
Talking, talking.
You got me talking,
You got me talking, talking,
Talking, talking.

Now I’m no expert on transatlantic affairs
And I don’t need to wear that thing
Gotta enough going on
And everything's getting nowhere
I’m the last to leave , Yeah that’s my thing
We all fall down , your drink is on the stereo
We all fall down , and then we start to sing
don’t wanna hear about the things that your gonna do
Gonna do gonna do do my head in
Chasing your tail , your heads stuck
( right up your arse) Vocoder
So I can’t hear it when you try to sing
We all fall down ( chorus )
Your drink is on the stereo
We all fall down , and then we try to sing
We all fall down , dancing to the stereo
We all fall down
I’m the last to leave , yeah that’s my thing
Yeah that’s my thing , Yeah that’s my thing
Yeah that’s my thing ,
I'm the last to leave - yeah that’s my thing

Hit The Floor
02:13
|
|||
|
You said were heading for the land of plenty
You said your going where there’s always more and more
You’ll never work out why you always come up empty
You’ll never know how hard until you hit the floor
Hup
You’ll never know how hard until you hit the floor
Those passive income schemes are leaving your heart empty
But that’s not stopping you from wanting more and more
You’ll never work out why you always come up empty
You love the nouveau riche that screw the working poor
Hup
You love the nouveau riche that screw the working poor
Bridge aaaahs X 2
You said were heading for the land of plenty
You said your going where there’s always more and more
You’ll never work out why you always come up empty
You’ll never know how hard until you hit the floor
Huh aaaahs X 2
Huh aaaahs X 1
You’ll never know how hard until you hit the floor -Huh

I know where your going
I know where you’ve been
I know nothings doing
Its just a nothing scene
La da da da X 4
The things that we keep doing
Despite all that we’ve seen
Just believe what you want to believe
Keep living in a dream
La da da da X 4
And then the lights go down and it all gets out of hand
I know where your going
I know where you’ve been
Just believe what you want to believe
Keep living in a dream
La da da da X 4
And then the lights go down and it all gets out of hand
Ahh aah
Aah aah

That suit fits like a hand in glove
That coffee tastes like Courtney Love
And you don’t know what your doing and you don’t know what you said
And then you gotta go up and get , get outta bed - they missed ya
Shes feeling cold so you check her pulse
You ring the bell but there’s nobody home
Theres no one there when you look through the door
and then you found her passport – that’s what your looking for
That’s what your looking for
That’s what your looking for
That’s what your looking for
That’s what your looking for

Whose that calling your name

Sometimes it seems like nothing much matters
Sometimes it seems like nothing at all
Your raising your glass
and everything shatters
Your just an insect crawling the wall
Your crawling the wall X 2
Sometimes it seems like nothing much matters
Sometimes it seems like nothing at all
Your cut from the cloth
That ends up in tatters
Your just an insect crawling the wall
Your crawling the wall X 4
Like a fly , your crawling the wall
Like a fly or an insect
Your crawling the wall , crawling the wall
Your attracted to light and movement
Your crawling the wall
Like a fly or an insect
Your crawling the wall,crawling the wall,crawling the wall

I was searching for the way
I was looking for the upside
Doesn’t matter anyway
I don’t know , I don’t know , what to say
I don’t know , I don’t know what to say
I’ve been hanging with the wrong crowd
I’ve got nothing much to say
I’ve been minding my own business
Doesn’t matter anyway

I don’t know , I don’t know what to say

Its not finished till its started 1
Its not written till its wrong
Seven seas to be parted
Carry On Carry on
When your slipping and your sliding
And you’ve got to make amends
its much better than deciding
Carry On Just pretend
Its not finished till its started
Its not written till its wrong
Seven seas to be parted
Carry On Carry on
When the world keeps on spinning
And your never near the end
You can stick it in a letter
Grab a mouse , Click to send
Carry on until the moon stops rising
The wind stops blowing the clouds away
Carry on until the moon stops rising
The clouds stop blowing away
Away
Its not finished till its started 2
Its not written till its wrong
Seven seas to be parted
Carry On Carry on
When there’s questions to be answered
and theres hearings to attend
You can hold off your decision
Carry on just pretend
Carry on until the moon stops rising
The wind stops blowing the clouds away
Carry on until the moon stops rising
The clouds stop blowing away
Away
Carry On X 4

So Right

It seems so slow 1
But it feels so right
It moves so slow
But it feels so right
I ‘ve got this feeling inside of me
Something just keeps ticking away in me
I don’t know just when I’m gonna explode
I thought things would be easier
I wish that I had amnesia
I just think I’m close to overload
Overload
It seems so slow
But it feels so right
It moves so slow
But it feels so right
I think this pressure is killing me
This is not how its supposed to be
This is not the way its s’pose to unfold
I thought things would be easier
I wish that I had amnesia
I just think I’m close to overload
I ‘ve got this feeling inside of me
Something just keeps ticking away in me
I don’t know just when I’m gonna explode
I thought things would be easier
I wish that I had amnesia
I just think I’m close to overload
Overload
I ‘ve got this feeling inside of me
Something just keeps ticking away in me
I don’t know just when I’m gonna explode
I thought things would be easier
I wish that I had amnesia
I just think I’m close to over lo-o-o-o-oad

Your coming round that way

While your dancing while your dancing While your dancing the world falls apart now
While your dancing while your dancing
While your dancing the world falls apart now
Ah aaahhh
While your dancing the world falls apart now
Ah aaahhh
While your dancing the world falls apart now
